The first world renown bloody KILLER according to the Biblical story was brother Cain and first victim of death by clubbing or slaughtering was also brother Abel.
I do not want to refer to Moses as also a murderer because the Israelites and followers of the Bible till date are usually silent that he was equally refered to as being a killer of an Egyptian on home ground before the Exodus.
The first killing by Cain was borne out of envy, stinginess and unsharing attitudes while that of Moses could be likened to tribalism, racism and nationalism spiced in ZIONISM.
We hardly research into anything in Nigeria so one could not and never would be able to lay claim to who the first killer is and why he or she had to kill.
In any case that Nigeria has ample unrecorded but glaring records of killings goes to show there were and are killers in this part of humanity’s world.
Are you a KILLER?
It is difficult for one to come out Openly to admit one had been or is a killer only in the bowel of One’ heart and the Inner recess of “Conscience” being, ” The Eyes of GOD inthe HEART of Man” could true confession and conviction be made.
Even in their conviction about heavenly bliss, killers still disguise and hide their ruthlessness and man’s Inhumanity to fellow men.
Killers have myriad of reasons to unjustly justify or justify though unjustly why they had and have to kill.
One interesting thing is that many that kill may not necessarily carry weapon or directly involve in killing but their evil thoughts, that lead to fiendish words culminate in devilish actions that get another life snuffed off directly or indirectly.
Personality clashes of various sorts borne out of ego, greed, inordinate ambition, indoctrinations at family, clan, tribal, religious and political levels make many a killer and others as victims in hands of killers.
We do say for sake of societal protection, some must be trained and engage in killings, for personal defence humans kill and get killed.
For the purposes of not wanting to be killed we sometimes kill others and during conscious interludes when our “Self” truly talks to self or self talking to God, God reveals unto us who a killer is.
At this stage whether a President, an Imam, Pastor, Armed Robber, Security personnel or a commoner like me, being TRUE to Self would reveal one Is, or not a killer.
Iam not addicted to only the media hypes of WHO Killed Dele Giwa, Abiola, Kudirat Abiola and a host of other politically inclined killings
because in POLITICS in Nigeria, killers don’t kill but protect their interests very selfish interests for that matter so others could go to hell.
I am much bothered why the killings of those that get killed by they that thrive in assorted killings.
Nigeria will be made ungovernable so it is sermonised and propagated. Now everything gets scatter scattered.
Godliness is dead in us all and in almost evey thought, word and action, NIGERIANS get killed by killers that kill.
Son of Man appeals to us all to enter the “Sanctuary” of SELF and confess as the Rosicrucian Order AMORC enjoins its members in reverence of self examination which equally be adopted by non members alike.
The excerpt goes as follows;
“Homage to thee Thou Master of all Truth,
I have destroyed wickedness for Thee,
I have not oppressed members of my family.
I have not changed the scale to cheat the buyers.
I have not filched another man’s land.
I have not stopped the water from flowing to others at the time it should…..”
Please check Confession to Maat.
Ruminating, reflecting and meditating on the aforestated, are you pure in thoughts, words and actions? Think about it.
That if GOD says “TIME UP”” today as my fellow born again Christians would ask,” Where would you spend your eternity?
Hmmmmm Hmmmmm. Think about it.
